Chapter 715 Negotiation, Share

This shows the advantage of Zhang Yang Studio. Anyway, none of the actors are his employees, so they can give out red envelopes as they like.

Just as the assistant walked out of Zhang Yang's home, on the other side, a team of Zhang Yang's personal team employees, led by Secretary Li, arrived at the Mihayou headquarters in XH District, Magic City.

The three founders Liu Wei, Cai Haoyu, and Luo Yuhao personally welcomed them.

Behind this team stands Zhang Yang. He is a big boss, especially since this big boss is closely related to Teng Xun, the leader in the gaming industry, so he must be cautious.

There are not three but four founders of Qimihayou. There is also one named Jing Zhicheng. He has a good name and the meaning of the name is also very clear. Where there is a will, there is a way.

Obviously, others are not as good as their names. One month after founding Mihayou, he received a letter of employment from Si Ke, so he sold 13% of Mihayou's shares to Liu Wei and Luo Yuhao for 1.3 yuan. .

In about 22 years, these 13% shares will be worth about 400 billion yuan.

I don’t know how this guy will regret it.

"Hello, Secretary Li." Cai Haoyu took the initiative to reach out and shake hands with Secretary Li.

"Hello, Mr. Cai." Secretary Li was wearing a suit today, but he didn't wear glasses.

He is the opposite of Team Leader Zhou, who is not myopic but likes to wear glasses. He used to be myopic, but he directly underwent laser surgery.

After everyone exchanged pleasantries, they went directly to the conference room.

Mi Hayou's team and Secretary Li's team sat on each side.

Secretary Li sat in the center on one side and praised the three founders: "Mr. Cai, Mr. Liu, and Mr. Luo, it is true that heroes emerge from young boys!"

"It's far behind Director Zhang Yang." Luo Yuhao said politely.

"Of course, there are few people in the world who can compare with my boss." Secretary Li said without being polite at all.

After hearing this, the three of them didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said.

In this world, there is another Zuckerberg who can compare with Zhang Yang in terms of wealth at about the same age.

In the field of film, none of his peers can beat him.

"But all three of them are worthy of admiration. At least I can tell you for sure that in the two-dimensional field, my boss is far behind you." Secretary Li was also ruthless when complaining about his boss.

People in his own team also looked at Secretary Li in surprise.

"If Director Zhang studies the second dimension, we will have to step aside." Liu Wei said modestly.

"You're wrong. My boss is too genius and too mature. In terms of the second dimension, he is not even as good as an ordinary person." Secretary Li said seriously.

The three people in Mihayou were confused by Secretary Li's words. They complained about their boss as soon as they came. What kind of operation was this?
"My boss just doesn't understand. Just like his movies don't touch science fiction, if he's not good at two-dimensional things, he'll let me talk about things." Secretary Li said calmly.

His set of words made Cai Haoyu and the others feel a lot better.

They were very happy to know that Zhang Yang was interested in his company, but it turned out that it was his secretary who came, which was a bit disappointing.

Now what Secretary Li said was reasonable and made them feel respected.

"Secretary Li, our company..." Liu Wei introduced Mi Hayou to him.

总结起来一句话，我们公司有《崩坏2》在手天下大可去得。《崩坏2》是2014年出的，当年营收9488.39万元。去年就增长至1.7亿元。

"And our "Honkai Impact 3" will be released in a few months." Luo Yuhao added.

"I heard that your company also wants to develop more exquisite games." Secretary Li did not answer their words but said to himself.

A few people were a little surprised, but Cai Haoyu soon said calmly: "Yes, we will not spend our whole lives playing the "Honkai" series, nor will we make games with reskin. This time we are going to start a big project."

"I still admire your company's ambitious goal of creating a world-class original animation company from scratch. So you need investment." Secretary Li concluded.

"Yes, our company still has some need for investment, but it is not that urgent," Liu Wei said.

"Yes, if our situation is good, we can go public, and then we won't be short of money." Luo Yuhao added.

"How many years has your company been established since it went public?" Secretary Li was shocked by the courage of these little guys.

A company established in 11 years ago is planning to go public in just five years. It is typical that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers.

"Our company's performance is good, and the situation is even optimistic. We are not planning to list on the GEM, but log on to the main board." Cai Haoyu said proudly.

Secretary Li felt like she was breaking out in a cold sweat. They wouldn't be in the second dimension for a long time, and they all had the second degree disease.

"It's not realistic for a company like yours to be listed on the main board." Secretary Li reminded.

"You have to give it a try." Cai Haoyu said.

Secretary Li chuckled and said: "We will discuss this issue later. Let's talk about this financing first. What specific valuation do you have for your company?"

"Our company's net profit last year was more than 1 million. We asked people for advice and the valuation is at least 30 billion." Liu Wei raised three fingers and said to Secretary Li.

"It seems you really don't understand the main board. Companies listed on the main board cannot exceed a price-to-earnings ratio of 23 times.
In other words, if your company is listed on the main board, the best case scenario is only a valuation of 23 billion. I think your company’s valuation is almost 10 billion. Secretary Li shook his head and said with a smile.

"Secretary Li, you may not know the user stickiness of our game. There are so many die-hard fans." Luo Yuhao said and listed a series of data.

"Every game has its own life cycle, and no one knows what "Honkai Impact 3" will look like. The uncertainty is too high.
Therefore, your company is not worth the highest valuation of 30 times, but is only worth 10 times. Secretary Li retorted calmly,

The three people opposite were all novices. They didn't realize that Secretary Li's voice had remained unchanged from this point on, like a robot.

The three of them were shaken by what Secretary Li said.

At this time, Secretary Li continued: "And you should know our boss's investment style. He never interferes in business management." The three of them were even more excited when they heard Secretary Li's words. Investment without involvement in business management is too rare.

"And there are no requirements for listing." Secretary Li continued to stimulate.

Listing is for financing. If the company develops healthily enough, it does not need to be listed.

And how many companies have been forced to go public by capital parties after financing, so that they can cash out easily. Zhang Yang does not participate in management and does not ask for listing, which is simply abnormal.

Besides, for game companies, as long as the games are popular enough, the most indispensable thing is cash. Then there will be so much money that they don’t know where to spend it.

Several people from Mihayou secretly communicated, and soon Cai Haoyu spoke up: "Secretary Li, even so, 10 billion is still too little, at least..."

"20 billion." Cai Haoyu thought for a while and said.

"What industry is a game company?" Secretary Li asked.

"We are a technology company." Liu Wei said firmly.

"What you said is not accurate. You are a technology and culture company. The reason why the boss likes you is because he feels that two-dimensional culture has great potential around the world." Secretary Li explained.

"Didn't you say that Director Zhang is not good at two-dimensional culture?" Luo Yuhao asked at this time, discovering the flaw in Secretary Li's words.

"The boss hasn't made a science fiction movie yet, do you think he understands science fiction movies?" Secretary Li asked.

At present, there is probably no professional in the world who dares to say that Zhang Yang does not understand science fiction movies.

The three founders of Mihayou didn’t speak.

Secretary Li took the initiative and said, "How much does it cost to develop your new game?"

"We plan to start related projects after "Honkai Impact 3" is stable on the market. The funds may be a bit high, probably around... million US dollars."

Luo Yuhao thought for a while and whispered, they themselves thought their decision was bold, but it was suffocating their dreams, and they had no regrets.

Not to mention the three founders, even Secretary Li was surprised by this investment. This was a bit of a big bet.

But if the boss can agree to let him come over to talk, he feels that even the boss thinks the company is not bad.

Thinking of this, Secretary Li said cruelly: "We will value your company at US$2 million, and we will invest US$50 million for % of your shares."

US$2 million is currently around 13 billion yuan.

The Mihayou team looked at it and realized that we had already reduced our valuation from 30 billion to 20 billion, but you only increased it by this much.

Several people shook their heads, a little dissatisfied.

"It's still too little." Cai Haoyu said.

“You may have forgotten what my boss means in the cultural sphere.”

Although Secretary Li still had no expression, his confidence was almost overflowing to the sky.

The gaming industry is greatly affected by policies. Sometimes Zhang Yang doesn’t have to change anything. As long as Mihayou can avoid certain things, it can recover immeasurable losses.

And Zhang Yang might be able to know some things that Mi Hayou wouldn't know just from Teng Xun.

I remember that before Silicon Valley Bank in the United States went bankrupt in 23, many large companies moved their assets safely in advance.

Teng Xun has also accomplished this, and there is so much to say in it.

The disadvantage of the young people of Mihayou Company is revealed. Two of them were born in 87 and one was born in 89. They are all inexperienced.

Seeing their tangled look, Secretary Li finally added more money and said, "We will invest 7 million, accounting for 45%." At this point, he was not prepared to add more.

"Okay, we agreed." Cai Haoyu said after thinking for a while. It can be seen from this that he is the leader of the company.

After the valuation was finally negotiated, both parties breathed a sigh of relief. Next, they only needed to conduct a detailed inspection of various matters of Mihayou.

The second Sunday in May is Mother’s Day. This year’s Mother’s Day comes very early, on the 8th.

This time Zhang Yang didn't take Liu Yifei to play anywhere, but planned to spend time simply at home, but the good news came from Secretary Li.

"How much?" Zhang Yang asked Secretary Li uncertainly.

"Boss, although they spent 1 million US dollars to make a new game, it also shows their sincerity. There are not many serious game companies in China now, and all of them only know how to change skins." Secretary Li thought that Zhang Yang thought he gave The valuation is too high, or the risk is high.

Little did he know that Zhang Yang was shocked by him. At its peak, Mihayou was valued at more than 3600 billion, so wouldn't 45% of his shares be worth more than 1600 billion?
In terms of feelings, he himself is not as profitable as Secretary Li's trip. Of course, the social influence of the gaming industry cannot be compared with that of the new energy industry.

Zhang Yang gathered his thoughts and asked, "What are your requirements?"

Secretary Li talked a lot. Zhang Yang heard that they even wanted to be listed on the big A main board. He thought of something and said: "It's okay not to participate in the company's management, but the listing must be approved by us. We can't let them Recklessly."

Bona's listing on the main board suffered from a price-to-earnings ratio of 23 times, while Mihayou was considered by relevant departments to be too risky and relied on a single game.

Of course, if Zhang Yang operates, it might be possible, but he won't speak out for such a thing.

Secretary Li immediately responded to Zhang Yang's opinion. He felt that Mihayou might not be interested in going public now that they had their investment.

"Okay, I will communicate with them." Secretary Li said firmly.

Zhang Yang hummed and hung up the phone.
